Very nice place. Although you might want to bring money. There is a very set in her ways lady running the little table as you go in. She makes you pay or you do go. Even though it says donation. I am all for donations but it was a little embarrassing when she told me to go back to my car and find some change when I told her I didn't carry cash. Thankfully there was a Gentlemen to the side that sent me through and said it is just a donation.

The gardens are beautiful. The volunteer staff not so much. I was reprimanded for not having my dog on a leash. I explained that he was on a leash while I was putting him in his carrier. She said well now he is. She never saw the three foot leash that was on him the entire time. As I left, she said so many people just let their dogs run and she didn't see my leash. At least she apologized but it ruined my experience since she apologized as I was leaving. She should have found me, it's a small place.Even the response to this review sounds like they think I’m disagreeing with the leash requirement. I HAD MY DOG ON A LEASH!!!!!

What a lovely place this is! As you enter off of Moreland, it feels like you're going through a winding road to enter the area where the main building is. The part I liked about this place is that there were two lovely ladies greeting us, and they actually didn't charge for the walk-through of the gardens. All they asked for is a donation if you can afford it. The ambiance was wonderful from the minute we entered to the minute we left. The weather was nice and cool. I would probably say it was in the upper 60s, and we walked around while talking and looking at the amazing plant life. We made our way all the way to the back area where we found two benches, and we sat on one of the bench chairs and talked for a while. We also met some people and talked with them before we left. It was a wonderful time, and the atmosphere was amazing. I truly recommend this hidden gem. I would have never thought of going to this place, but I'm glad I did.

A relaxing longer stay in the beautifully landscaped garden is definitely worth it. It is maintained and designed by volunteers. There are many different compartments (rose garden, hibiscus garden, bonsai garden, cacti and much more) with seating that invites you to linger. There are plenty of free parking spaces in front of the entrance. Dogs are welcome. There is no entry fee. They ask for a donation of $1, and if you like, you can give more so that the park can be preserved. There are also offspring of various plants for sale to transform your own garden into such a beautiful oasis, as well as a small souvenir shop.

This is a nice park. This all volunteer organization runs a great program. The gardens are well taken care of and it is clean and beautiful. The stroll through the park is well laid out and marked. The addition of the water around the park is a nice touch. Certain parts of the park smell amazing. The holiday lights were really well done too. They should have those up all year long and it should be open in the evenings during the winter. So pretty.

This botanical garden is probably best known for its annual plant fair. Vendors from across the state bring a myriad of plants and often prices quite fairly.The garden it'self has several acres with a mostly shady walking path. Most notably there is a beautiful cactus garden. There are scattered bromeliads and aroids.

Great activity while we were visiting from MN in January! Extra plus was the big plant sale going on the day we went.

The Gardenfest is a complete disappointment. When I asked why there are so few vendors one of the ladies said due to the construction the plant show had to be reduced in size. But then she says how great everything is. So many good vendors missing, it is not even worth going to, compared to when the Botanical Gardens used to be for the community it no longer is. Appears politicians have taken this over too.

My visit to these public botanical gardens was a delightful immersion into the beauty of nature. The gardens are thoughtfully curated into different sections, each showcasing a diverse array of plants. From vibrant floral displays to serene succulent corners, the variety was impressive.What made my experience even more special was the timing of the garden market during my visit. The market added an extra layer of charm, with local vendors offering unique plants and garden accessories. It was a perfect blend of exploring the curated gardens and discovering treasures at the market.Strolling through the paths, I couldn't help but appreciate the effort put into creating a haven for plant enthusiasts. Whether you have a green thumb or simply enjoy a serene environment, this botanical gem is a must-visit.

This is a quickly expanding botanical garden located right in the heart of PSL right off the Indian River. The garden boast several areas such as bonsais, orchids, roses, butterflies, and even fairy's! They have a cute little secret garden and a dock which would be great for ceremonies or weddings. They have a gift shop and event coordinators to help every event go off without a hitch. I attended the free holiday light event which is great for families. Soon a park, more trails and boating access will be available. I can't wait to see how it turns out.
